An Estate Agent’s Guide to Hampstead Garden Suburb NW11 & N2
(Zone 3: Northern Line):
Hampstead Garden Suburb is an elevated suburb of London, north of Hampstead, west of Highgate and east of Golders Green. It is known for its intellectual, liberal, artistic, musical and literary associations. It is an example of early twentieth-century domestic architecture and town planning in the London Borough of Barnet. Founded by Henrietta Barnett, who, with her husband Samuel, set up the Hampstead Garden Suburb Trust Ltd, which purchased 243 acres of land from Eton College for the scheme and appointed Raymond Unwin as its architect. The objective was to create a utopia within easy reach of central London which should cater for all classes of people and all income groups with low housing density within tree-lined roads.
There are no walls or fences, only hedges and wide-open spaces, free to all. Being situated close to Golders Green Station, transport links are fantastic and there is even a hopper bus service running through the whole South Side of the Suburb making your commute even easier.
Highly sought after location with fabulous schools and incredible architecture makes this a wonderful place to settle, but beware, once you have lived here, you won’t want to live anywhere else; it really is special.
